What Jeep Gladiator do most buyers choose?

The Jeep Gladiator years with the most listings are 2022, 2021, and 2023.

These higher-volume years tend to be popular because they give you a wider selection at prices that sit in the heart of the used market. They also tend to offer a strong balance of availability and deal quality, which makes shopping easier.

What is the Jeep Gladiator's resale value?

The table shows broad downward movement across the lineup, which is good news if you're shopping used. Several years have seen double-digit drops, and even the smaller declines still point to softer pricing than a year ago. That gives you more room to find value, especially if you're flexible on model year and trim.

The 2023, 2021, and 2022 model years have held their value best, with the smallest year-over-year price changes.

Is the Jeep Gladiator safe?

• 2025: 3/10
• 2024: 6/10
• 2023: 4/10
• 2021: 7/10
• 2020: 6/10

The Gladiator includes forward collision warning with automatic emergency braking and adaptive cruise control with full-stop capability on the Sport S and above, while blind-spot monitoring with rear cross-traffic alert is available on higher trims.

For the safest used buy, the 2021 model posts the highest confirmed score of 7/10.

Should I buy a used Jeep Gladiator now or wait for the next model?

Buy now if:

• Price trend: The 2025 model is at −13.94% versus a year ago, and the 2024 model is at −10.13%.
• Deal availability: The 2025 model has 35.7% good and great deals, and the 2024 model has 35%.
• Sweet-spot year: The 2022 model has the most listings at a current average price of $31,726. The Jeep Gladiator offers a distinctive open-air, adventure-first character that makes it stand out from conventional midsize trucks.

Consider waiting if:

• Powertrain/efficiency: Jeep offers a single powertrain for the 2025 Gladiator, so we hope you like it. The tried and true Chrysler Pentastar 3.6-liter V6 engine generates 285 horsepower and 260 pound-feet of torque, and uses an eight-speed automatic transmission to power the wheels.
• Tech: Every 2025 Gladiator has a Uconnect 5 infotainment system with a 12.3-inch touchscreen display. It includes wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, SiriusXM satellite radio, and eight stereo speakers.

• Starting price: Base prices range from $38,695 to $61,695 plus a $1,995 destination charge.

If you're buying used today, the 2022 model year offers the best mix of value and availability. If you want the latest tech and features, it may be worth waiting for the next model year's inventory to build up.
